1.7 The Stepfather: With A Cold Cold Heart

During opening statements in the murder trial, DA Richard Fisher
told the jury, “Ronald Maddux maliciously with a cold, cold heart
beat and tortured this child.”

While I am biased against the perpetrators who target those
around them for abuse, I determined to approach the subject of the
stepfather using critical thinking skills rather than my emotional
gut reaction.
I don’t make excuses for him and I believe in justice, but there is
enlightening research about head injuries and batterers.
